The Enchanted Architect

A man and a woman lose their bearings in the English countryside as night falls. To take shelter from a storm that is brewing, they go inside an old manor house that is only apparently uninhabited. Soon they find themselves plunged into a nightmare as they try to get through the night with terrifying, non-human beings surging around them. House of Shells is a non-profit short film inspired by Dylan Dog.

Domiziano Delvaux Cristopharo, filmmaker and performer, trained as a visual artist at an art school specializing in ecclesiastical decor. His works are experimental, both visually and conceptually, and his unique signature is instantly recognizable. In the last seven years he has made over ten films. His first, House of Flesh Mannequins, became a cult film the world over at its release. His second film, The Museum of Wonders, was awarded the 2010 ANOCI Prize and a special mention from the SIFF audience jury (the Salento International Festival), and also won the Fantafestival. In 2012, his film Red Krokodil was the opener at the Samain du cinema fantastique in Nice and won the prize for best screenplay. This year, he directed both the short House of Shells and Doll Syndrome.
